A world Of Magic and Mystery

Chapter Fourteen - The Match and A Date

I rode my new broom.. A gift from Sirius. Honestly the man spoiled me rotten. It was raining hard. We'd already had our other matches. This was one of the last. If we win this we move in to the next match. That's when I saw it. I dived down. Cedric. Who had told me to call him that after he found me as that crying mess. Also dived. We where neck in neck. But then. I caught it. Gripping the snitch. I stopped the dive and softly hit the ground. The game was called. "Nice catch Heather." I beamed.
"Thanks Cedric." I moved quickly. Handing the snitch to Madam Hootch before trying to escape the incoming crowed. I did. But Cedric came after me. Which honestly surprised me.
"Heather! Wait up!" I turned.
"Yes?" I asked. Blinking. He froze and began to fidget.
"Well uh. I was. Umm. Could you. Um. Are you. Um." I raised a brow. Why was he so nervous. "Areyoufreethisweekend?" I blinked.
"What?" He blushed a crimson red.
"Um. Are you free this weekend?" His voice was oddly high pitch. He was nervous for some reason.
"I don't got any plans if that's what your asking. why?" He was going even redder. Was that possible. He cleared his throat.
"Would you umm." He tapped his foot in the ground and held the broom behind his back. "Would you like to go to the Three Broom Sticks with me?" I stared for a bit. That's when it hit me. I turned crimson as well.
"Are you asking me in a date?" He squeaked. Then nodded.
"Yes. Yes I am." He was calmer now. I smiled. The rain was slowing down.
"Yeah. I'll go to the Three Broom Sticks with you. Gotta go before the crowd comes over. See you Saturday by the great hall?" He beamed.
"Alright. See you then."

I stood outside the great hall. Wearing a simple black dress. That's when Cedric came over. He also wore simple clothing. We then walked together. Just talking and walking. Daisy rested. Hiding in the sleeve of my dress in my left arm. It was a simple day. We talked and walked. And drank butter bear. We got along great.

After this day it resulted in a few more dates.

I sat down. Panting as I chugged water. Hiding from the crowds of people. We'd won the Quidditch cup. I looked to my side to see Buckbeak. To my surprise Hagrid had given him to me as a Christmas gift I smiled. When someone plopped down next to me. I looked over to see Cedric. I smiled. "That was breath Heather." I smiled.
"Thanks." He smiled. And looked over.
"We are about to finish the school year. We've already taken the finals. How do you think you did?" I looked at him.
"Cedric. I'm the best witch in my year." He just laughed.
"Yeah. Your right. That was a stupid question." We staid silent for a bit.

Rage filled me. And fear. I ran. Sprinting up the stairs. I threw the doors open. "You'll come back to Potter manor right!?" He looked at me.
"Whoa Heather breath. Yes I will. And." He reached the map. Grabbing the map he, Sirius, and dad made. "I want you to keep this." I gripped it. Then I smiled.
"Thanks." I then hugged him. "I love you Mooney." He hugged me back. Kneeling.
"That boy. Diggory. He's good for you." I blushed.
"Don't tell papa Padfoot. Hell gut the poor boy!" He chuckled. Then he booped my nose.
"I won't." Then he smirked. "For now. See you at home!" He waved good bye. I smiled. And waved.

I walked with Cedric. When he stopped. "Heather." I turned and looked at him.
"Yes." He fidgeted. Then he looked at me.
"Will you. Um. Heather. Will you be my girlfriend." I blushed and then smiled.
"Yes Cedric. I'll be your girl friend." He smiled. Then engulfed me in a hug. I yelped and giggled as he began to spin. I laughed. Placing my hands on his shoulders. That's when he sat me down.

Cedric was packing his stuff with a bright smile. "Finally asked her out on a date?" I looked up and smirked.
"Nope. I did that a while ago. Today I asked her to be my girlfriend." My friends jaws dropped. I smiled. "She said yes!" They laughed.

I walked out the train and up to my god-father. That's when Cedric passed. "See ya Heather. And wright me?" I smiled then nodded.
"I sure will Cedric!" I smiled. That's when Sirius mouth and eye. And brow twitched. He then opened his eyes.
"Who's that boy?" I cussed should have known that I couldn't hide this. I bit my cheek.
"I think you know Papa Padfoot." He went stiff. And slowly began to turn his head to Cedric. To my dismay. Neville, Ron, Fred, George, Mooney, and Mister Weasley all heard. And caught on. "Fuck. CEDRIC RUN OVERPROTECTIVE FAMILY COMING IN!" Cedric had turned in time to see seven. Very. Very. Very angry males staring at him.  He cussed. And like any sane man who is face to face with a werewolf and a god-father whose already been to Azkaban and is not scared to go back for killing for his god-daughter. And two extremely over bored pranksters. A ministry man. And two best friends. Cedric Diggory. Sprinted. Running away. Laughing.
